Winning in the Advertised Job Market

Only 25% of available jobs are advertised, recruiters do not fully advertise all vacancies. Because they will search through the database first to find suitable candidates. Thus, it is important to formulate a game plan that ticks off all these factors in order to win.

Resumes

A resume is a tool for you to get an interview, your resume is employer’s first impression about you. It is important to tailor your resume accordingly. Most employers look through resumes as a screen application out rather than in.

Phone Interviews

Answer the phone in a professional manner, always be ready with something to say. Employers use phone interview to screen out candidates and shortlist for face-to-face interview. Try to reschedule surprise phone interview

Assessment Centres

In an assessment centre, you will be assessed on a range of activities ranging from in-tray exercise to group activities. It provides a holistic view to the employers of your key skills and how you fit into the team.

In-person Interviews

Show your interest in the company, well prepared and being excited about the role sets you apart from other candidates. Attitude is one of the key areas employers look for before they offer someone with a job. It is crucial that you have demonstrated the ability to do the task and be punctual.

The invisible Job Market

Up to 75% of jobs are actually not advertised. It is important to search for these invisible jobs in the market. There are always vacancies in the job markets, companies are continuously expanding and restructuring, but some of these positions are not immediately advertised.

Networking

Networking is about building relationships with people, it is a two-way street, don’t just make contact when you need a job. Start contacting them before you start job searching to keep them updated with your details, how they are going and inform them that you are in the process of job hunting.

Finalising the Starting Package

Negotiating your starting package is probably the most stressful time of your job hunting process. Sometimes it is easier to accept what has been offered to you. But it is important that you believe what you been paid reflects what you worth.

Succeeding in Your New Job

After finding the job you deserve, it is important to excel it. Give yourself a grace period to learn about your job, working environment and culture. Always ask for help if you don’t understand. There are many tips in this section to help you succeed in your new job.

LinkedIn and Social Media

Having a LinkedIn profile is now nearly as important as having a resume. Even if you don’t supply a link in a job application, many employers might still try and look you up. It’s also a great way to network and to stay on top of who you know.
